Lollipop Designs

Take a look at some of the fantastic stationery available from Lollipop Designs. Designed by Rachel Le Mesurier, the cards have a really retro feel and are produced with the environment in mind. I bought some birthday invites and thank you cards last year and can vouch that they are as gorgeous in real life as the photos suggest.

And if  you're feeling creative, Lollipop also does a fantastic range of printed cards that come with a rubber stamp and ink so that you can personalise them yourself.

Birthday Cards

As promised, here are the cards I made for the boys birthday. When a friend first got me interested in card-making I had grand visions of being able to spend my evenings making cards and wedding invites to make a bit of extra pocket money. These two cards took me over two hours to make so I think my commercial dreams are slightly unrealistic!

The grass on the elephant card is made using one of my favourite rubber stamps from Impress.
